***Round of 64 - Friday Games Thread***
- Thread starter jhmossy
- Start date
Don’t know why big men don’t use the backboard and bank it in more when close. Jesus go what Bill Walton shoot 21-22 vs Memphis in the NC game way back. Clinic
Looks like Roy Williams perfect round of 64 record is going to end tonight.
Ah memories!
Florida got an "easier" draw to the Elite8 in both 2012 & 2013;
- in 2012, UF defeated Norfolk St to go to the SW16, then lost to Rick Pitino's Louisville in the E8.
- in 2013, UF beat Florida GC in a SW16 game, then lost to Belein's Michigan in the E8.
This time in 2021, #7 Florida gets 15 seed Oral Roberts rather than #2 Ohio St.
Oral Roberts will be another feisty, mid-major that's similar to the previous ones that UF played.
I mean, Florida could have had more 'glamerous' match-ups against the 2 seeds (Ohio St, Georgetown, Missour)
but those mid-majors who have defeated the 2 seeds have EARNED their way into the RD32.
Sometimes, it's better to be also a little lucky than to be just good.
With UT out and North Carolina following soon Kansas is the only team left I want to lose. Hopefully they'll hurry up so I can be a full neutral for this tournament.
Wisconsin is playing all phases (offense, defense) of their game very well. The Badgers look great.
This has been an issue three straight Tournaments now for UNC
Punch them in the mouth they disappear
Since winning his first legit title in 2017, Roy Williams has suffered 3 straight blowout losses when his UNC tarheels were eliminated from the tournament. In all these 3 games they were down big at the half and these games were over halfway into the 2nd half. This is embarrassment, and just like Tom Izzo, Roy Williams’ March magic is no longer working.

That's some bad karma right there.
Well, after an up & down SEC season, Florida won their opening round and have a great chance at the Sweet16.
Anything else is gravy!
Are you going to tell us who your team is or do you just plan to tell us the history of every other team?
Houston showing Ohio St how to handle a 15 seed. Coincidentally, Cleveland St played Ohio St close too.
Well, that sucked. GG Wisconsin. I wish we would have showed up so you could have played someone with a pulse. Pathetic effort.
Good lord ACC is trash. Not feeling good about tomorrow at all
It’s up to you and FSU to show up for us. It’s obvious nobody else decided to.
